Life of Pi Lesson Plan

Bringing in Technology

Many of the suggested projects in this lesson plan have a presentation component, which students can use to showcase their research and interpretation of the text. This may be in the form of a powerpoint presentation, a short film, or an infographic. Some classroom activities and homework assignments will require students to use the Internet for research. This should be encouraged as much as possible. You will want to advise your students as to how to distinguish between a legitimate source (for example, a scholarly journal, published interview, news article or university website) and a disreputable one (for example, a forum page or a blog).
